In addition to its authentic 2011 Camaro appearance, the car also features:

Fully functional radio controls

This is an awesome list. My brother’s really into RC cars, so now I have some good ideas for what to get him for Christmas. Thanks! 🙂

Man, the Maisto R/C 1967 Ford Mustang looks badass as hell! I’m getting one for sure! I’ve just got the RC cars fever right now and would buy them all, but because of my budget I need to prioritize and get the ones I like more and can afford to get. Because I really dig this model (and it’s just $18 right now!) I will definitely get one.

Dan

Just look at that Berlinetta! It just makes my mouth water in anticipation of getting one! I love RC cars and I already have 11 models and will soon have 12 with this one. I started collecting them about 10 months ago and I’ve become a fanatic of this sort of cars.

I think I’ll get a Redcat Racing Electric Volcano EPX Truck for my 7 year old boy as his birthday is coming up at the end of September. He loves trucks and although this is a bit expensive at over $100, he deserves it! Also, this truck seems very durable and looks awesome!

Maisto R/C 1967 Ford Mustang looks like a really great RC car. I am not into cars as I like my quadcopters but I just might have to get me one of these to run around on the porch and aggravate every one. LOL

Astonishing RC cars! This can be a terrific gift for the holiday season. The Ferrari Berlinetta is the best for me becasue of it’s fierce appearance. Not only kids will enjoy these RC cars but big boys will surely love to collect and play with them too.

jon terns

I got out of the rc cars as I got older and started developing a taste for the rc heli’s, but these are some very nice cars that just might get me back into it again!

I have the Redcat Volcano and it is one of the best rc’s I have ever owned! It says that it is waterproof and to an extent, it is. Just don’t go too deep or it will slow things down for the rest of the day! I know from experience on that one! 🙂

Britanica

I love that 1967 Ford Mustang! I remember growing up playing with my brothers RC cars and trucks. I would like to get a great one for myself just to play around with. I am torn between getting a RC car/truck or a flying craft though. I would imagine the flying ones are way more fun. I do have over 2 acres of land here to play on as well! 😀

Annie Marie Peters

I’ve been drooling over that 67 Mustang. The price isn’t too bad, all things considered. I wonder if the cost will come down a bit closer to the holidays?

Joe

That Ferrari F12 Berlinetta! I am shocked I haven’t came across it. My father owns one, the same model. I have to get this for him. He worked hard to get that car and I bet he would love a mini version. The price isn’t that bad either. I wonder if I can find one in another color though. He has the midnight blue shade. Very beautiful car.

Since I live in WAY upstate NY and it snows so much we definitely would need to get the
Traxxas The Stampede. I bet it would be a blast on the snow banks that pile up around here. There are times when they get up to two feet. I bet you could jump pretty darn high.

Alee

The 67 Mustang, What a beauty! It is absolutely tempting for me to get my hands on every single one of them, but I’d first start off by getting that Mustang.

Dan

It has been YEARS since I have owned an RC car. Wow the nostalgia. It brings me back. I remember me and my brother doing stunts down at my grandfather’s farm. Good times! They have changed a lot in 20 years, I’ll tell you that! The detail alone is amazing.

Geanie Marie

I have to echo the previous commenter. These cars have changed a lot since my kids had one. Theirs was a monster truck, and they terrorized the cat with it. Poor thing, she hated it but was compelled to chase it until she finally ended up on top of the refrigerator hissing and spitting at the intruder. I like the cars for small children. Leave the hovercraft and expensive items for the adults who can take care of them.
